for the avvy!

It's like styrene that comes in sheets. Basically it's thin sheets of plastic that can easily be cut and formed. It can be found mostly at model railroad stores.

Before you spend a lot of money on it.. make sure to check any local printshops. Printing stores often have styrene sheets in various thicknesses.. and they also tend to throw a lot of it away which is often in pieces large enough for most LEGO modelling needs. Many printing stores would be willing to either give it to you, or sell it to you cheap.

If you want a few pictures of what Styrene sheets look like I can snap some.
